Paying cash: what to do

  • Ask for a bundled self-pay price that includes the surgeon, anesthesia, facility and follow-up visits; hospital file prices usually cover only the facility.
  • Ask for the price of the whole operation, since several sinus codes are usually billed together.
  • Ask whether image guidance and a CT scan are included.
